      What do you use for a mic? Cuz I don't think I have one that'll work with xb1.

  2. What else did you watch because I thought fairy tale was mediocre at best, because it's just a mashup of tropes that other anime have done better. Log Horizon is good, but it takes about 3 or 4 episodes to start up. I really liked SAO despite some flaws. Attack on Titan starts off really, really well but then kinda tapers off. FMA: Brotherhood is really good. So was Gurren Laggan.
  3. Oh yeah, that's true, I crushed on Anna Kendrick ever since I saw her in Scott Pilgrim.
  4. TIL that the one archery class is already full up. =(
  5. Watching them play through the first stage of corneria, at lot of it looked like it was ripped directly from the first level of SF64. It's like they're trying to reset the series, and tbh, I'm glad it's a lot closer to the gameplay of starfox 64. The way it flies and handles was better. But it needs to change up the enemies more.
  6. Yeah, Lucas's psi magnet just isn't what it used to be (so much lag on both the start and the release now), and neither is his down aerial. it's way too difficult to land the one hit that matters, the last, delayed 3rd hit that actually spikes and deals decent damage, the pittance of damage from the first two isn't worth the amazing about of risk inherent in attacking anyone with a down aerial. His up smash is far more vertical than it used to be and leaves him vulnerable for much longer than it used to. Oh, and it takes longer to actually throw out there, so it's easily seen coming and dodged. It still hits like a truck but it's barely usable anymore. They have to be DIRECTLY above lucas for it to hit, no one is gonna do that. The same thing with his up tilt. It goes straight up, so you'd have to be standing IN your opponent's face before it'll hit anything, where as you have a nice horizontal range on Ike's up tilt and even Ryu's uptilt fist. They nerfed the damage and knockback of his third jump, but it does launch him further than it used to and it's easier to recover from below the stage with it now, instead of always having to approach the ledge from out on the side. The power and knockback of his forward smash was decreased a great deal, which makes sense, considering it's just a stick and comes out much faster than ness's bat. I expected that to happen. His up air has noticeably less launching power, is much harder to land somehow, and does less damage. Oh, and they slowed down the rate at which you can fire pk fires. They fucked up his neutral air like they did with mewtwo's, it hits multiple times for shit damage until the last hit, at which point you generally can't get to hit cuz you've landed on the ground by then. They did improve his throw by giving the snake more range, so now it's more like samus and link's, making it so much more usable now. His moves that have the shine to them, like Fair, dash attack, Bair, have sweet spots now that do good damage if you hit them with the shine, so there's that I guess. But when the fair does 8% normally and 11% on sweet spot, the only thing going for it is the boost to its launch, which he really needs. Overall, he has been severely nerfed. He can still rack up some damage, but he has a severe lack of kill moves. Up smash is pretty much it and you can't land that nearly as easily as you used to. Oh, down smash too, but that has a much shorter range in front of him than it used to so you basically have to trick your opponent to roll into it. I have to rack up damage very nearly to 200% to start killing people with moves that you can actually land or even with one of his throws. Lucas still does well... he just can't kill. Like Godot's complaints about Fox. Hmm... They definitely neutered him this game. I expect a severe rehaul for him in the next patch.
  7. A lot of trailers? Most of what I saw was in-game footage. Maybe you're thinking of the xbox conference. Last guardian played out like a movie as much as it did a game, whicih looks nice, but I was never interested in it anyways. Just one of those -oh, that's neat- things and that's it for me. World of FF looked alright. I was turned off right away by the chibi shit, but it looks like it won't be that way all the time so I'm just waiting to find out what the point of the game is and how it'll be played. I was never interested in the uncharted series and the demo didn't do anything to change that. Dreams looks like a claymation studio tool for use with the system. And it looked like a lot of time consuming editing that they fast forward time lapsed the hell out of. blah. and wth? kingdom hearts unchained looks gross. is that a cell phone game? yes, yes it is. with the ugly chibi style of theatrythm and random use of chibi cats with serious dialogue that just doesn't work. WTFBBQ. Did I mention I became less enthused about the SMT x FE game by the new stuff they showed? something something illusions? They turned tiki into a vocaloid with a terrible, generic vocaloid song shown off in the video. I am disappointed. The star fox game really does look like a redo of the best SF game in the series, 64, but tbh, the whole dual screen thing looked really awkward. So I'm only lukewarm towards it. wool yoshi is kinda cute I guess but not interested enough. I didn't see the fallout 4 thing but people who enjoyed the series before said it was good and mods mods mods. kay. we'll see. Nintendo didn't really do or show anything new for FE:Fates except give us the name and proved that they were working on getting the english voice acting done for it. Did xenoblade chronicles look like Phantasy Star Online to anybody else? Cuz I think I'd rather play PSO. The battle system, from what little we saw of it looked like FF13's to me and a lot of people complain about that system. The metroid prime federation force thing was on screen for only a minute, but it seemed alright. Looks like a spinoff that'll handle a lot like the kid icarus game. Sad to say, the only thing from e3 that really had me interested was Halo 5. Geek feels when Buck from ODST is on Locke's fire team and that the MC is rolling with his original fire team. Details of warzone are vague, but it seems like they tossed enemy npc's into the middle of a bigger version of BTB to mess with both sides. Unless some of them are your allies sometimes, but there aren't any concrete details on it yet besides the number of players on each team. But it looks like there are way too many vehicles in that mode, which means a lot of one sided matches once the initial battle for vehicle supremacy is settled. I haven't been following all the tiny tidbit news about halo that came out since the announcement trailer in the past so I guess it's nice to learn a lot of new stuff at once. I'm still skeptical of the 343's storytelling ability, especially when it comes to their portrayal of MC. But it clearly has a lot of things coming together that has built up from the series canon. Profiting off of Bungie's hard work is what they're doing. But I did love how they did the Didact- have to give 'em that.
  8. The hadouken and hurricane kick are easy enough to do, I always found the shoryuken inputs difficult so I rely on UpB for that one.
  9. his back air has killing power and with his specials like his hurricane kick and hadouken, whether you use the input or not, how long you hold down the button determines the speed/distance it goes. So obviously use the longer hurricane kick and shoryuken for recovery but the shorter ones to make you less vulnerable afterwards. And mix up the shoryuken speeds to throw off opponents to sneak it some hits or help you close in and go hand to hand. The longer you hold it, the faster and further it goes. I like to throw the slower one to follow behind take advantage of when they block or try to roll out of the way. Shoryuken really launches and can kill at some pretty low percents. It's what luigi tries to emulate most of the time but completely fails to do.
  10. I'm all smashed out.

  11. When everybody else is shit at everything except the bad guys. As the hero, you gotta do everything yourself. And in some instances (hyrule warriors) you gotta constantly backtrack to help out the crappy ally or else game over.
  12. tfw lots of beef with whoever actually thinks the list that is crossed out is a good one.
  13. You know what's a shame? How unexcited I am for these two characters. Also, Star Wolf attacks had different properties that pretty much made him better than fox and falco. They really could've ditched falco for all I cared. But yeah, I don't care about roy one bit.
  14. Screw E3, I'm way more hyped for a book due out in August.

  15. Now that you mention it, we had a big panda bear for years named Ling Ling after one of the Pandas at a zoo. No idea what happened to it. That was ages ago. Like kindergarten and earlier. No wonder I'd forgotten till now.

  17. Come to New Mexico. We shall learn to box together.
  18. No, they always do it when they get out. Like, my doors aren't crap doors with super padding where you HAVE to slam it so the door will fasten closed.
  19. Why does everybody who sits in the passenger seat feel the need to close the door that hard? The slamming noise bothers me.
  20. Totally worth it.
